Southern Italy Culinary

Southern Italy Culinary Extravaganza

October 16 - 24, 2018

 

 

 

The Campania region in Southern Italy is known for its ancient ruins and dramatic coastlines.

 

It’s capital, Naples, bustles between the iconic gray cone of Mt. Vesuvius and the deep blue waters of the Gulf of Napoli. It’s crown jewel, the Amalfi Coast—with its pastel hued towns Positano, Amalfi, Ravello—nestles amid  cliffs and sea. It’s a land where the sweet scent of lemon blossoms harmonizes with the Mediterranean vegetation and the acrid aroma of salt. 

 

A vertical landscape characterized by labyrinthine stairs and winding alleys, we shall visit and taste its many gastronomical joys.  

 

The cliffside town of Sorrento shall be our home base with its sweeping water views and     café-lined square. The itinerary includes a mix of attractions with emphasis on food, as we learn the secrets of Mediterranean cuisine. Sample limoncello and gelato while learning how they are made. Experience a wine-tasting luncheon among the vines. Feel pampered on our private boating excursion around the Isle  of Capri. Enjoy hands-on encounters with local residents and culture, while experiencing historical and culinary delights along the way.
